Does anyone have any tips or know of any websites with good info on how to play heads up at the end of a tournament? I tend to play pretty agressively providing teh blinds have got pretty big. Apart from that I don't really have any tactics.

I dont have any websites for you, I just wanted to say that headsup is hard to get a tactic. some players wait for the right hand to go all-in, other try to get the blinds (like you). in my opinion in headsup you have to get your own style because you have to react in a different way every hand you face. so just try some headups and you will be winning soon.

Hi you are right there is no tactic. All what you can do trust yourself and your feeling. At the beginning with small stacks you can learn how the other player play if he shows sometimes his/her cards. Anyway gl. Bye Rainbowengel

Yeah, if you practise some heads up play you will get better at it. Just like the more hands of poker you play you get better at it. There are many places you can play heads up and it'll help you improve. Trust your play and don't be afraid to play some hands you think are no good because many times your opponent will have a bad hand too.
